TORQUAY
The Calm of the Coast
Living and working beside the Southern Ocean, Surf Coast Candles draw constant inspiration from the rugged coastline, rolling waves, and lush landscapes of the Otways. Each candle is hand poured in our Torquay studio, just minutes from some of Australia’s most iconic surf breaks. We take pride in crafting candles that not only smell beautiful but also tell a story of place.
